How to create a board with specific view from multiple boards under multiple spaces?

[BM]

Hello,

We have about 14 spaces and each space has 2-5 boards. Now I need to create a board or whatever it is called to bring 5 of those boards in one place so during the stand-ups we don't have to switch between multiple boards. I have Jira/cloud/premium version. I have already tried creating a plan (from the left plan in Jira), but the board is very noisy. I also tried cross-team planning board but it seems that then we can't use different keys. Currently we have many projects and each project has its own key That means the new board I intend to setup should include all those 5 project keys. Hope this makes sense.

Hi, @BM 

If I understand correctly, I’d suggest you create a filter using a JQL query like: project in (key1, key2, key3, key4, key5). And then make a board using your existing saved filter and configure columns to reduce noise. 

Also, if you are curious to test your idea with AI, you can check out No-Code Apps Creator by my team. It is a Jira app that lets you build your own dashboards from a simple prompt.

Hi @BM,

Are those team-managed or company-managed projects?

In a company managed-space (project), you can create a new board based on a filter. So first create and save a filter in Jira that returns the issues from all 5 projects. Then create a new board based on the existing filter. See https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/create-a-board-based-on-filters/.

In team managed-spaces you cannot create custom boards. But, if you are open to use a plugin, our Great Gadgets app offers a Team Wallboard gadget that can display the issues from a board or filter/JQL in form of a board.

In your case, you'll need to configure the gadget with a filter/JQL that returns the issues from the 5 projects. The gadget will display the issues in 3 columns representing the status categories TO DO, IN PROGRESS and DONE.

You can use this gadget in your stand-up meetings. The colors can be customized. Find more details in this article: https://community.atlassian.com/forums/App-Central-articles/9-gadgets-for-a-powerful-Scrum-dashboard-in-Jira/ba-p/1683063

Hello, Good day. You can explore dashboard. On dashboard you can add multiple gadgets using the same filter query used on the boards. Thanks
